Isaia 51
1 Haoño iraho, ry mpañori-kavantañañe, ry mipay Iehovà; itoliho i lamilamy nampitserahañe anahareoy, naho i koboñe nihaliañe anahareoy.
“Listen to me, you who follow after righteousness, you who seek Yahweh. Look to the rock you were cut from, and to the quarry you were dug from.
2 Haraharao t’i Avrahame rae’ areo, naho i Sarae nisamake anahareo am-panaintaiñañe, amy t’ie nirery avao te tinokako, le nitahieko vaho nampitozantozañeko.
Look to Abraham your father, and to Sarah who bore you; for when he was but one I called him, I blessed him, and made him many.
3 Fa nohoñe’ Iehovà t’i Tsione; hene nampanintsiñe’e o tanan-taolo’eo, naho nampanahafe’e amy Edene o ratraratra’eo, le hambañe amy golobo’ Iehovày o liolio’eo; ho tendrek’ ao ty firebehañe naho ty hafaleañe, ty fañandriañañe naho ty feom-pisaboañe.
For Yahweh has comforted Zion. He has comforted all her waste places, and has made her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of Yahweh. Joy and gladness will be found in them, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.
4 Haoño iraho ry ondatiko, toloro ravembia ry fifeheako; fa hiboak’ amako ty Hàke, vaho havereko ami’ty havañonako ho failo’ ondatio.
“Listen to me, my people; and hear me, my nation, for a law will go out from me, and I will establish my justice for a light to the peoples.
5 Fa marine ty havantañako, fa mionjom-beo ty fandrombahako, vaho hizaka ondatio o sirakoo; handiñe ahy o tokonoseo, hiato ami’ty sirako.
My righteousness is near. My salvation has gone out, and my arms will judge the peoples. The islands will wait for me, and they will trust my arm.
6 Andrandrao mb’andikerañe eñe o fihaino’ areoo, le isao ty tane ambane atoy; fa himosaoñe hoe hatoeñe o likerañeo, naho hihamodo hoe saroñe ty tane toy, naho hihomake hoe izay ka ondatio; fe ho nainai’e donia ty fandrombahako vaho le lia’e tsy haitoañe ty havantañako.
Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look at the earth beneath; for the heavens will vanish away like smoke, and the earth will wear out like a garment. Its inhabitants will die in the same way, but my salvation will be forever, and my righteousness will not be abolished.
7 Mañaoña ahy ry mahafohin-kavañonañeo, ry ondaty mitan-Kake añ’arofoo; ko ihembaña’areo ty ifañembaña’ondatio, vaho ko ilonjera’ areo o inje’iareoo.
“Listen to me, you who know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law. Don’t fear the reproach of men, and don’t be dismayed at their insults.
8 Ie ho hanem-bararaoke hoe lamba, naho habotsen-oletse hoe volonañondry; fe nainai’e kitro añ’afe’e ty havantañako, naho pak’ an-tariratse tsitso’e añe ty fandrombahako.
For the moth will eat them up like a garment, and the worm will eat them like wool; but my righteousness will be forever, and my salvation to all generations.”
9 Mivañona, Mivañona, mañombea haozarañe ry fità’ Iehovà! Mivañona manahake o andro taoloo manahake o tariratse haehaeo. Tsy Ihe hao ty nampitseratserake i Rahabae? ty nitomboke i fañaneñey?
Awake, awake, put on strength, arm of Yahweh! Awake, as in the days of old, the generations of ancient times. Isn’t it you who cut Rahab in pieces, who pierced the monster?
10 Tsy Ihe hao ty nañamaike i riakey, o rano’ i laleke mangonkoñeio; mbore nanoa’o lalañe an-daleke ao hitsaha’ o jinebañeo?
Isn’t it you who dried up the sea, the waters of the great deep; who made the depths of the sea a way for the redeemed to pass over?
11 Aa le himpoly o vinili’ Iehovà fiaiñeo, higodañe an-tsabo mbe Tsione mb’eo, nainai’e hilolohe hafaleañe, naho handia taroba an-kaliforan-kaehake, vaho hihelañe añe ty haoreañe naho ty fiselekaiñañe.
Those ransomed by Yahweh will return, and come with singing to Zion. Everlasting joy shall be on their heads. They will obtain gladness and joy. Sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
12 Izaho, le Izaho ty mañohò anahareo, Ia-mb’arè irehe te ho hembañe am’ondaty tsi-mahay tsy hivetrakeo, naho amo ana-ondaty nanoen-ko ahetseo?
“I, even I, am he who comforts you. Who are you, that you are afraid of man who shall die, and of the son of man who will be made as grass?
13 Nihaliño’o hao t’Iehovà, Andrianamboatse azo, I namelatse o likerañeo naho nañoreñe o faha’ ty tane toio? ihe miriatsandry lomoñandro ty amy haleveleve’ i mpamorekeke mihentseñe handrotsakeiy! Fa aia ty haromota’ i mpamolevoley?
Have you forgotten Yahweh your Maker, who stretched out the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth? Do you live in fear continually all day because of the fury of the oppressor, when he prepares to destroy? Where is the fury of the oppressor?
14 Ho hahàñe aniany ty nasese-androhy; tsy hizotso mb’ am-pihomahañe mb’an-tsikeokeoke ao, vaho tsy hieren-kaneñe.
The captive exile will speedily be freed. He will not die and go down into the pit. His bread won’t fail.
15 Izaho Iehovà Andrianañahare’o, ty mampivalitaboake i riakey vaho nampitroñe o onja’eo— Iehovà’ i Màroy ty tahina’e.
For I am Yahweh your God, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar. Yahweh of Armies is his name.
16 Fa najoko am-palie’o ao o volakoo; naho nanakoñe azo ami’ty talinjon-tañako, soa te hambole i likerañey, naho hañoreñe ty tane toy, vaho hanao ty hoe amy Tsione: Ondatiko ‘n-iheo.
I have put my words in your mouth and have covered you in the shadow of my hand, that I may plant the heavens, and lay the foundations of the earth, and tell Zion, ‘You are my people.’”
17 Mivañona, Mivañona, mitroara ry Ierosalaime, fa ninoma’o am-pità’ Iehovà i fitovim-piforoforoa’ey; ie gineno’o reketse karafo’e ty fitihem-pivembeñañe, vaho nikapaihe’o.
Awake, awake! Stand up, Jerusalem, you who have drunk from Yahweh’s hand the cup of his wrath. You have drunken the bowl of the cup of staggering, and drained it.
18 Tsy eo ty hiaolo aze ami’ty hatozantoza’ o anake nisamahe’eo; tsy eo ty mañoho-pitañe aze amo ana-dahi’e tsifotofoto nibeize’eo.
There is no one to guide her among all the sons to whom she has given birth; and there is no one who takes her by the hand among all the sons whom she has brought up.
19 O raha roe zao ty hifetsak’ ama’o; ia ty handala azo? Ty fangoakoahañe naho ty fandrotsahañe, ty kerè vaho ty fibara; aia ty hañohòako azo.
These two things have happened to you— who will grieve with you?— desolation and destruction, and famine and the sword. How can I comfort you?
20 Fa toirañe o ana-dahi’oo, mifitake amo lohan-dala’o iabio, hoe fanaloke tsinepake an-karato; lifore’ ty fifombo’ Iehovà, ty fañendahan’ Añahare’o.
Your sons have fainted. They lie at the head of all the streets, like an antelope in a net. They are full of Yahweh’s wrath, the rebuke of your God.
21 Ehe janjiño zao ry mpisotry, naho ry mpijike—fe tsy an-divay;
Therefore now hear this, you afflicted, and drunken, but not with wine:
22 Hoe t’Iehovà Talè naho i Andrianañahare’o milozoke ty am’ ondati’eoy: Hehe te rinambeko am-pità’o ty fanovim-pivembeñañe, naho ty fitovin-kaviñerako; le lia’e tsy hinoma’o ka;
Your Lord Yahweh, your God who pleads the cause of his people, says, “Behold, I have taken out of your hand the cup of staggering, even the bowl of the cup of my wrath. You will not drink it any more.
23 Fa hapoko an-taña’ o mamorekeke azoo; o nanao ty hoe ami’ty sandri’oo: Mibaboha handialià’ay; le nampanahafe’o amy taney ty lambosi’o, vaho amy damokey hijelajelaña’iareo.
I will put it into the hand of those who afflict you, who have said to your soul, ‘Bow down, that we may walk over you;’ and you have laid your back as the ground, like a street to those who walk over.”
